Metabolic flux analysis based on stable-isotope labeling experiments and analysis of mass isotopomer distributions (MID) of cellular metabolites is a tool of great significance for metabolic engineering and study of human disease. This method relies on accurate and precise measurements of mass isotopomers by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. To improve flux estimates, we assessed potential errors in determining MID of tertbutyldimethylsilyl-derivatized amino acids, which were attributed to (i) the choice of integration algorithm, (ii) concentration effects, and (iii) overlapping fragments. We report 29 amino acid fragments that are useful for flux analysis and another 18 fragments that should be rejected, most importantly Val-302, Leu-200, Leu-302, Ile-302, Ser-302, and Asp-316. In addition, we provide a protocol to minimize errors for determining MID to less than 0.4 mol % for accepted fragments.
